defense spending at its finest

The Serbian Davis Cup team — that’s Nole Djokovic, Janko Tipsarevic, Nenad Zimonjic, and Viktor Troicki — headed to Split for this past weekend’s World Group Quarterfinal tie against Croatia. They took care of the home team with a 4-1 win (see the breakdown here).

And to make sure they got enough R&R to gear up for their rubbers, the Serbs stayed at the Le Méridien Lav in Podstrana, eight miles down the Dalmatian coast from Split.
